Chapter 721: The Complete Collection of Flies
In Xiangning Mansion, a tense atmosphere spread over the government office. Qingtian Department was ordered to go to Jiangzhou to clean up the official fields, and the leader was Jiang Anyi. Thinking of the past "war achievements" of Lord Jiang, Xu Guoxiang, the deputy governor of Jiangzhou, was frightened. Sitting in the lobby of the government office, he felt cold and felt a lot of cold face, and his long face dripped out of water.
The main seat naturally returned to King Luo Huai. The officials of Jiangzhou were on the left, and Jiang Anyi stood on the right and talked happily, "...Long live the order of Jiangzhou to clean up the official fields, just pointing it out casually, not thinking that there are any personal corruptions in Jiangzhou. It is also a blessing that Jiangzhou will be appointed by the emperor as the emperor."
The officials standing on both sides felt bitter in their hearts. I should give this honor to others. At least other prefectures would not be led by Lord Jiang, the "disaster star". I don't know how many people will be unlucky this time.
Sichen took the official documents to Jiangzhou Longweizhou General Administration. Chen Kaixuan, the governor of Jiangzhou, did not dare to take it, so he went out to greet him in person. The Longwei who was on this trip was under the coordination of Jiang Anyi, was under the jurisdiction of Sichen Siyu. Although the two girls were not old, they were old and knew the principle that strong dragons would not suppress local snakes. When they came to Xiangning Mansion, the safety of King Luo Huai still had to rely on the local Longwei Mansion.
After reading the official documents and checking the identity card, Chen Kaixuan smiled and said, "Chen has ordered the convening of personnel. The biggest thing at the moment is to protect the safety of King Luo Huai. The government office also hopes that the girl will tell the prince and ask Lord Shen Sima to draw some yamen runners to help inquire about the news, and remove the annoying people from the city."
Siyu said, "Don't worry, Lord Chen, Sima Shen promised that half of the yamen runners would be under your control during the period of his stay in Xiangning Mansion. If you ask the soldiers of the mansion to help, just talk. When the prince returns to Beijing, the subordinates will definitely ask for credit from the governor Han for the Lord."
Jiangzhou is Fuzhou, and Xiangning Prefecture is the capital. There are thousands of people coming and going every day. There are hundreds of inns distributed in the city. It is obviously impossible for dozens of dragon guards and more than a hundred yamen runners to monitor them everywhere. Those who carry swords and swords have become the primary target of attention, and many people in the martial arts and rivers and lakes have been driven out of Xiangning City.
When the inn received a notice from the yamen, in addition to strictly checking the road guide, he should report it to the yamen immediately when he found an abnormal situation. The beggars living in the bell tower, drum tower, city god temple and other places were also ordered by the yamen to open their eyes wide and pay attention to whether there were any strange faces in and out. The secret line of the dragon guard was also mobilized, and an invisible net was scattered over Xiangning Mansion.
An old man was admitted to the small yard of Chengdong Shengping Inn. He was dressed in luxurious clothes. Two followers were wearing silk shirts. At first glance, he knew that he was a wealthy family. He did not waste his time running hard, and he held a string of copper coins for rewards. Fang Xiaoer smiled so hard that he couldn't stop.
"Customer, there is food in the store. If you can't get used to the food in the store, you will have a hotel teahouse more than a hundred steps forward. If you want to buy tea and porcelain to the west of the city, the area in the south of the city is a place for leisure and entertainment..." After receiving the reward, Fang Xiaoer introduced carefully.
The old man wore a jade ring on his hand with a beard, which was so moist and crystal clear. Fang Xiaoer knew the goods, and this ring cost at least 200 taels. Seeing that the waiter was a little distracted, the follower beside the old man said, "Waiter, what are the famous places in the city?"
"There are too many fun places in Xiangning City." Fang Xiaoer is from Xiangning and is full of pride in the places he grew up. "There is Cigong Tower Fengxiantai in the south of the city and the north of the city..."
The old man listened casually. He had come to Xiangning City many times and knew very well about the scenery in the city. This time he came to Xiangning not to travel around, but to assassinate Jiang Anyi. The old man's name is Xiang Huaying, and he is the top killer of Tianxing Sect.
He is of the same age as Sun Yuewu and Zhou Yaoming, and is a veteran of the Tianxing Sect. Xiang Huaying has been in a semi-retired state for many years and has only been living three times in the past ten years. His previous savings to buy houses and land were enough for him to live comfortably in the countryside.
However, every family had a difficult sutra to recite. He knew that being a killer was in danger. He did not bring his three sons into the industry. His martial arts were taught to his son. As a result, his son caused trouble everywhere, either interrupting his hand or kicking the man's legs. He paid most of the money he had accumulated. When his sons' sensible grandchildren continued to make trouble. Seeing that the family business was falling and the land became less and less, Xiang Huaying was angry and was too lazy to care.
The third son has a concubine daughter who is the most well-behaved. He often visits him at home and chats with him. In the first month of this year, he was betrothed to the scholar in the same city. When he got married in October, the betrothal gift was squandered by his third son's family. Apart from a few self-embroidered wedding dresses, the dowry was not available at the home. The betrothal gift was very generous and there was no corresponding dowry to come to the door, so he would definitely be looked down upon by his mother-in-law's family.
When Xiang Huaying learned about it, he scolded his third son, but he still had no money. It happened that the sect had heard of the business of assassinating Jiang Anyi. The generous reward moved him. After doing this business, not only did he get a dowry for his granddaughter, but he could also leave some family fortune for his children and grandchildren. When he closed his eyes, he would no longer have to worry about them.
Before coming, he had already told the funeral that his wife had passed away a few years ago. Xiang Huaying told the housekeeper to sell the land in the house if he didn't come back three months later, half would buy a dowry for his granddaughter and half as a fund for his servants. Xiang Huaying knew that this assassination of Jiang Anyi was probably a great disaster, so he would fight for his children and grandchildren before he died.
There are large rows of shacks outside the west gate of Xiangyang City. The houses built with simple wooden boards are low and humid, emitting a strong stench. There are hard-working families living here. The city's big shops cost five copper coins a night, so these men who come to the city to find work are naturally reluctant to leave. They can sleep in this shack until dawn, and find a place to shelter the wind and lie down, even a penny is saved.
The straw under him emitted a musty smell, and Lu Yuanchang couldn't fall asleep as he smelled the bad smell on his body. It had been two days since he came to Xiangning Mansion. During the day, he carried goods and passed by the government office. He found that the government soldiers were very escorted. He stopped and pretended to pull out his shoes and someone came forward to drive him away. In the evening, he looked for an opportunity to walk past the back door and found that there were government soldiers guarding the back door, and there were government soldiers patrolling around him.
After scratching the itch, Lu Yuanchang simply sat up. He was the eldest disciple of Sun Yuewu, the leader of Tianxing Sect, and was regarded as the successor by Sun Yuewu. As the eldest disciple of the sect, Lu Yuanchang's shoulders were much heavier than other disciples. He knew that his master had been seeking the revival of Tianxing Sect. Faced with the aggressiveness of Xingyue Pavilion, the business of Tianxing Sect was repeatedly compressed, which caused the fall of the disciples and disciples, and many state branches had already survived.
"I know that assassination of Jiang Anyi will bring disaster to Tianxing Sect, and may even suffer heavy losses like 80 years ago. But now Tianxing Sect is like a person who is about to die. It will disappear on its own within ten years. Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to take a risk. Assassination of Jiang Anyi is a poison, and you have to drink it with your teeth. If you can live without death, Tianxing Sect may have the opportunity to be reborn from the fire." Lu Yuanchang still remembers that the master was in pain when he said this under the light, and his white hair shone with silver light under the candlelight.
The news that Jiang Anyi, the capital city’s Furong Garden, defeated Hua Shengwei, has spread throughout the world, although most people are concerned about the so-called “martial arts”
Lin No. 1" praised him and sneered, but no one denies that Jiang Anyi's skills have been able to establish a sect and become the top master. If he can be assassinated, Tianxing Sect will definitely overwhelm the Xingyue Pavilion and regain the position of assassination leader.
Lu Yuanchang lay back in the straw pile, and his disciples obeyed his work. The master was over 70 years old and weak, and his uncle was inconvenient to his legs and feet. He went on this business by himself, and he repayed his master's raising grace regardless of success or failure. Anyway, he was an orphan and had no family to worry about his life and death. With a chuckle, Lu Yuanchang pulled up a straw and bit it in his mouth, humming a song that could no longer remember the tune.
A rich man came to the house of the girl Yan'er in Cuihuayuan. She was a tea merchant from Pingzhou. She spent 500 taels of silver in three days. Yan'er wished she could get tired of this man named Zhang all day long.
Zhang Zhongliang leaned in the couch, resting his head on Yan'er's pink and white thighs. As long as he opened it, a red strawberry would be fed into his mouth. The sound of the piano was so quiet that it made people intoxicated, but Zhang Zhongliang's mind was not on the beauty, and he was thinking about whether he would go to Yin Hotel to explore tonight. Last night, he was discovered by the Long Guard on the high building just as he approached the wall of Yin Hotel. Fortunately, he was clever and turned around and walked towards the south gate, crawling into a house to hide before escaping.
The 20,000 taels of Xuanhong was touching, but the name of assassinating Jiang Anyi made Zhang Zhongliang even more moved. He had already thought about it. After killing Jiang Anyi, he immediately went from Qizhou to Qingzhou, and then from Qingzhou to Rongmi Kingdom. The Yuantian Sect established the Great Qi Kingdom next to Rongmi Kingdom. Some time ago, there were rumors that the Great Qi Kingdom recruited talents. Jiang Anyi and the Yuantian Sect were mortal enemies. If he could kill him, he would not want the 20,000 taels of Xuanhong. He went directly to the Great Qi Kingdom. With this contribution, the Great Qi Kingdom would at least be granted a general. As for gold and silver, it would never be less than 20,000 taels.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhongliang laughed out loud, Yan'er said softly: "Mr. Zhang thought of something happy, and said that he would let me be happy for you."
He turned over and sat up and hugged Yan'er in his arms, pinched Yan'er's chest with his big hand. Zhang Zhongliang smiled strangely and said, "It's a good thing to get promoted and make money. When I have money, I will redeem you for you and let you enjoy your happiness with me."
Yan'er twisted in Zhang Zhongliang's arms as softly as boneless, pulling his spring love, and a hint of ridicule appeared on the corner of her mouth. If a man can trust his words, even pigs can climb trees. You, a tea businessman, still want to get promoted and make money. You are really a daydream and redeem yourself. You have heard this more than ten times. If you still take it seriously, you will be stupider than a pig. When Zhang Zhongliang was pressed on her body, Yan'er gasped, but she thought coldly in her heart that fifty taels of silver are the least. If the person surnamed Zhang can't take out the money, don't blame me for turning against others.
In the pulp and wash shop in the south of the city, a woman was rubbing her clothes hard, and beads of sweat as big as beans rolled down from her forehead. With a "bang", another bucket of clothes was placed beside her, "Zhang Wang, you have washed this bucket of clothes for me, and you have repayed the job I found for you."
Zhang Wangshi smiled and raised her face, saying, "Thank you, girl, don't worry, keep it clean for you."
When the man walked away, Zhang Wang's smiling face turned into a ferocious face, and his hands turned into claws and grabbed a piece of the mulberry wood washboard that was about inch behind. He rubbed his five fingers, and the mulberry wood board turned into wood chips and sprinkled them all.
